There are numerous specialized centres and programs in Europe and the UK, with a new one recently established at Oxford. China, too, has created a wide range of centres and schools at its top universities and has generated 5,346 doctoral and master\u2019s theses on nonprofit research over the past twenty years (Yang &amp; You, 2020).<\/p>\n<p>A comparison with the US is particularly instructive for understanding not only why Canadian education and research in the field remains under-developed, but also how to strengthen this infrastructure in our country.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-7676 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/MPNL-logo-Carleton-crest450-300x285.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"285\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/MPNL-logo-Carleton-crest450-300x285.png 300w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/MPNL-logo-Carleton-crest450-400x380.png 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/MPNL-logo-Carleton-crest450.png 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>The US has 160 <em>graduate<\/em> programs with a concentration in nonprofit management and philanthropic studies (NMPS) including 35 full Master\u2019s programs (Mirabella et al., 2019). In addition, there are 31 centres or institutes (which have direct reporting lines to a dean or provost) on NMPS that support research as well as professional development (Weber &amp; Brunt, 2022). Canada has only one graduate program \u2013 the Master of Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership, at Carleton University.<\/p>\n<h2>Private Investment and Transformative Gifts<\/h2>\n<p>Population size does not account for this big difference. Rather, in the US, private investment was an important mobilizer and continues to be a key factor in building the education and research infrastructure. Beginning in the 1980s, foundations supported the creation of graduate programs with the aim of enhancing management practices in the sector and building bridges between practice and academia (Weber &amp; Brunt, 2022).<\/p>\n<p>This initial investment had a multiplier effect. Educational programs hired faculty who brought in graduate students and research funding. These, in turn, led to the establishment of programs and centres at other universities, generating even greater demand. All of this required and received new philanthropic support that made it possible to create centres and research chairs across universities, and through them provide for diversification and specialization \u2013 as with, say, the Eileen Lamb O&#8217;Gara Endowed Chair in Women\u2019s Philanthropy, the Frey Foundation Chair in Family Philanthropy, and the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation Chair on Community Foundations.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/philanthropy.iupui.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-7682 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Indiana-Universitys-Lilly-School-of-Philanthropy-16-9-317x177-1469210775-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"370\" height=\"207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Indiana-Universitys-Lilly-School-of-Philanthropy-16-9-317x177-1469210775-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Indiana-Universitys-Lilly-School-of-Philanthropy-16-9-317x177-1469210775.jpg 317w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 370px) 100vw, 370px\" \/><\/a>A transformative gift from the Lilly family and Lilly Endowment established the <a href=\"https:\/\/philanthropy.iupui.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lilly Family School of Philanthropy<\/a>, at Indiana University, in 2012. The Lilly Family School has become the world\u2019s premier academic institution in the field hosting 19 core faculty (among other instructors) and offering a PhD, Professional Doctorate, Master\u2019s and undergraduate degrees in philanthropy.<\/p>\n<p>The recognition of the need to invest in education and research infrastructure for the sector has largely been absent in Canada. An additional constraint has been the absence of a natural academic home for NMPS within universities. The likely disciplines of Political Science and Sociology have long abandoned any interest in philanthropy or nonprofit studies (as opposed to social movement studies) (Skocpol, 2016).<\/p>\n<h2>What Happened In Canada?<\/h2>\n<p>In the US, a home was found in schools of public administration that were adept at adding nonprofit management to their existing repertoire of public management programs (Saidel &amp; Smith, 2015). While Canada has a large number of well-established schools of public administration, they tend to be more focused on public policy and the study of administration from an institutional perspective, rather than on management. That Carleton\u2019s MPNL is housed in a school of public administration, which is part of a unique Faculty of Public Affairs, is a function of the initiative by its founding academic entrepreneurs (as will be discussed in a following piece), rather than a welcoming field of public administration comparable to the US. (Note that the School of Public Administration at the University of Victoria has a Masters of Community Development.)<\/p>\n<p>The study of nonprofits and their relationships with governments has been further inhibited by a lack of visibility in Canada both among governments and among scholars who study governance. Neoliberalism and New Public Management became prominent in the 1980s, encouraging governments to contract out or privatize more services. Nonprofits were conceived of simply as alternative service providers \u2013 undifferentiated from private sector firms in spite of their distinctive roles in civil society. The government-nonprofit relationship continues to be overlooked in scholarship and in practice.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-7685 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Photo-is-courtesy-of-Keith-Kiselstone1600_400x300_acf_cropped-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"436\" height=\"327\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Photo-is-courtesy-of-Keith-Kiselstone1600_400x300_acf_cropped-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Photo-is-courtesy-of-Keith-Kiselstone1600_400x300_acf_cropped.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px\" \/>When Canadian universities have taken an interest in NMPS education, they took an inexpensive route, due in part to fiscal austerity, by offering certificates through continuing education (Mirabella et al., 2022). Because certificate programs are usually taught by temporary contract instructors and are offered on a cost-recovery basis, they are less costly than investing in permanent faculty or degree programs and centres. While this non-degree programming has value for upskilling nonprofit professionals, it cannot act as a mobilizer and multiplier to build the NMPS field. The cycle becomes self-reinforcing: without faculty, no degree programs are created, and without degree programs, there is no investment in faculty.<\/p>\n<p>As the US experience demonstrates, field-building takes:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>centres or schools with faculty and direct reporting lines to university decision-making authorities, so they are taken seriously;<\/li>\n<li>the cultivation of new academic leadership through bringing in new generations of researchers and the succession of retiring faculty; and<\/li>\n<li>the strategic pursuit of endowments and other long-term investments (Weber &amp; Brunt, 2020).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Canada failed to build the substantial educational and research infrastructure needed to support the philanthropic and nonprofit sector. And, what had been built has shrunk in recent years. In the late 1990s, the J. W. McConnell Family Foundation generously funded a master\u2019s program at McGill to upskill two cohorts of nonprofit executive directors, but McGill did not continue the program after those two years.<\/p>\n<p>The nonprofit specialization in the MBA at the Schulich School is now defunct following the retirement of the RBC Professorship in Nonprofit Management and Leadership \u2013 a position that no longer exists. The Certificate in Philanthropic Management at the Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al closed in 2022. Humber College has ended its post-graduate certificate in Fundraising Management, albeit with the possibility of eventually reinventing it (note that there is an accelerated pathway into the MPNL for its graduates). Programs that had some NMPS content at Queens, Dalhousie, Grant MacEwan, and Mount Royal Universities have all ceased. Several reasons account for this scaling back: the programs were not fully institutionalized within their universities in the first place, as they were not anchored with regular faculty, retirements were not replaced, or sustained funding was not secured.<\/p>\n<h2>Here We Are Today<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_7711\" style=\"width: 451px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/2023\/the-benefits-of-a-school-of-philanthropy-in-canada\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7711\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-7711\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Carleton_Universitys_Richcraft_Hall1600_400x300_acf_cropped-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Read &quot;The Benefits of a School of Philanthropy in Canada,&quot; another installment in the &quot;Building Bridges&quot; series.\" width=\"441\" height=\"331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Carleton_Universitys_Richcraft_Hall1600_400x300_acf_cropped-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/panl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Carleton_Universitys_Richcraft_Hall1600_400x300_acf_cropped.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 441px) 100vw, 441px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-7711\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Read &#8220;The Benefits of a School of Philanthropy in Canada,&#8221; another installment in the &#8220;Building Bridges&#8221; series.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>And yet at the same time, the demand for education and research in the nonprofit\/philanthropic sector is increasing. The 2023 (eleventh) cohort of Carleton University\u2019s MPNL program was the largest ever, at 36 incoming students, with more than three times that number having applied. It is clear that investment pays off.<\/p>\n<p>The payoff of investment in research is illustrated by the productivity of <a href=\"https:\/\/philab.uqam.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PhiLab<\/a>, a research project housed at the Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al. Focused on research on grantmaking foundations and funded by grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and from foundations (a total of $4.8 million), PhiLab has provided funding to scholars across the country to work on issues of relevance to foundations and has been very active in knowledge mobilization. However, PhiLab\u2019s future is also in question when its funding ends in 2024 and its academic lead retires.<\/p>\n<p>Now is the time to recognize and act on Canada\u2019s need to build and support an education and research infrastructure for the nonprofit sector. It\u2019s time for this sector to benefit from a dedicated school, just as the private sector does with business schools.<\/p>\n<h2>References<\/h2>\n<p>Mirabella, R., Sulek, M. &amp; Teo, T. K.
